Chapter 125: From This Day Onwards, There Can Only Be One Voice in Min Province
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“I’ve seen that all the other provinces have a leader, and only the Min Province is leaderless in every realm. Like a plate of scattered sand, your strength cannot be directed in any one direction. I think it’s time for us to change this situation!” Song s.h.i.+jie looked directly into the crowd as he declared, “I, Song s.h.i.+jie, present my humble self to take on this important task!”
Everyone present understood that this was Song s.h.i.+jie’s intention—to gather their combined strength under his command, forming an alliance.
When that happened, he would be the leader of the alliance and would be able to mobilize the power of the entire Min Province as he wished. Those who submitted to him would prosper, while those who resisted would perish.
This was something that n.o.body had been able to accomplish thus far, not even the Min Province Agency of Special Affairs.
This was because even though the Agency of Special Affairs was very powerful, they could only exert their influence on the world of Cultivators. In the two realms of politics and finance, their influence was much more limited.
And now, Song s.h.i.+jie had come to completely unite all these separate worlds, becoming the true number one leader in all of Min Province.
This was something that left the crowd stunned for a moment.
It was different from calling Lu Xuan the number one top dog of Min Province, as it was only a label that signified Lu Xuan was the strongest in all of Min Province.
It did not mean he was given a position to rule at the top.
Obviously, not everyone was willing to be lorded over by a new alliance leader.
Moreover, he was a junior to them, and he had only got to his position through his family’s connections.
Although the people present at the party did not hold power comparable to the Song family’s, in their heart of hearts, they were still fighters who struggled for their position. There was no way they could look up to someone who climbed up through their family’s connections.
“What’s wrong, ladies and gentlemen, you’re not willing?” Song s.h.i.+jie asked lightly.
He was not surprised by their reaction. Ever since he started working for the family, he had encountered situations like this many times. There were cases of people looking down on him, even thinking that he was just blessed with his family’s protection.
Some people were born into a position others spent their whole lives achieving.
Deep down, Song s.h.i.+jie understood this, but he did not care. The people who had hemmed and hawed were now already buried six feet under.
“I agree. Every other province has a leader, and it’s much easier to get things done. Our Min Province is scattered like sand, and we are out fighting amongst ourselves, while others treat us as a joke. Thus, I agree to support Young Master Song!”
At this moment, one man stepped forward, choosing to support Song s.h.i.+jie.
When the others saw who he was, they could not help but inhale a breath of cold air. It was a big player in Min Province, the province’s own King of Real Estate, Li Hongjun.
Li Hongjun was only involved in the real estate business, and over many years he continued to keep a low profile, so people from other industries did not really know much about him.
However, even if they could only see the tip of the iceberg, they knew that he was a huge superpower in the real estate industry. After all, he was a man given the nickname, the King of Real Estate.
Now he had directly come forward in support of Song s.h.i.+jie. To many, this was a very, very clear signal.
Song s.h.i.+jie had not come unprepared, or to be precise, he had come completely prepared.
He had already found supporters in Min Province. Even before the Holy Dragon Corporation had entered Min Province, they had extended their tendrils of influence that had a surprisingly big effect, and it was just that the average person was kept in the dark about this.
“I support Young Master Song!”
“I agree, as well!”
With Li Hongjun opening the floodgates, very soon, more than half of the people present were in agreement. Or perhaps it should be said that they had no choice but to submit to this strength.
Against the Song family, and the gigantic powers behind the Song family, they had no choice but to lower their heads.
It showed that the remaining people who were yet to fall in line were a little bit slow to adapt to the circ.u.mstances.
The Ling Group helmed by Ling Huang stood out especially.
“What’s wrong, Ling Huang, do you have a different opinion?” Song s.h.i.+jie looked straight at Ling Huang. He had clearly done his homework, so he could identify Ling Huang straight away.
Needless to say, he knew that Ling Huang was extremely influential even amongst the big bosses of Fu City. After all, he used to be the richest man in Fu City.
Among the rich and powerful of Fu City, he clearly had tremendous clout. If Ling Huang refused to bow his head, it would influence many others, and would also throw a wrench into Song s.h.i.+jie’s plans.
“I simply think that it’s a bad proposal!” Ling Huang replied slowly.
“Bad? What gives you the right to speak to our Young Master this way!”
All of a sudden, Wen Ziteng popped out from behind Song s.h.i.+jie, scolding Ling Huang in a threatening manner.
“Are you saying we don’t even have a chance to offer different suggestions now?” Ling Huang burst out in anger.
“You don’t!”
Song s.h.i.+jie grinned as he said, “From this day onwards, there can only be one voice in Min Province, and that voice is mine. I don’t need to hear any other voices but my own. You only have two choices, to serve or to die!”
At this moment, Song s.h.i.+jie exposed his true sinister side.
Those who submit will prosper, while those who resist shall perish. Anyone who did not fall in line would have to die.
Many people frowned at this, obviously disagreeing with Song s.h.i.+jie’s approach. The way they did things in this country were different from abroad, and this method of doing things was clearly too uncouth.
Even so, Song s.h.i.+jie obviously did not care. If a simple barbaric approach could solve the problem, why bother taking a long approach.
If they disagreed, he could just beat them to death!
With absolute strength on his side, he was just that powerful!
“And what if I disagree!”
Suddenly, at this moment, something n.o.body expected happened. Dressed in a burgundy evening dress, Lin Miaoyi slowly stepped to the front of the crowd.
Seeing Lin Miaoyi, Song s.h.i.+jie’s eyes lit up, as he said, “Miaoyi, are you speaking on behalf of the Taichu Group? However, from what I know, the Taichu Group has no intention of entering Min Province. You alone cannot represent the Taichu Group!
“Still, for your sake, I’m willing to let you have a share of the market. After all, our families have a good relations.h.i.+p, so it’s no problem!” Song s.h.i.+jie remarked, “Our families can even grow one step closer. If we’re united by marriage, wouldn’t that be even better!”
Song s.h.i.+jie’s eyes flashed with a gleam of longing, as he clearly had some ideas in his mind with regards to Lin Miaoyi.
Lin Miaoyi only gave Song s.h.i.+jie a stony stare, saying, “Song s.h.i.+jie, you can stop your wishful thinking!”
Song s.h.i.+jie immediately wiped the smile off his face, replying, “Since you’re unwilling, Miaoyi, then there’s nothing more for me to say. However, don’t get in the way of my business, or you can’t blame me for what happens!
“Wen Ziteng, why don’t you entertain these bosses who refuse to submit. Let them know who has the final say in Min Province now!” Song s.h.i.+jie ordered right away.
Wen Ziteng stepped forward, and in a flash, the air seemed to coagulate. Ling Huang and the others felt a terrifying pressure crus.h.i.+ng down onto them. It was the pressure exerted by a National Guardian level master.
For these ordinary people, there was no way they could withstand the pressure. Even Ling Fei, who had started her own cultivation and made significant progress, already a Level Two Mingjin master, could not withstand the pressure. Her face flushed red, and she was on the verge of vomiting blood.
The faces in the crowd unconsciously revealed expressions of rage at Song s.h.i.+jie’s methods, which were too simple and too savage.
